are now in Jail charged with throwing
bombs at the Haymarket riot. There were
others outside who were more to blame
than they. l was at the Haymarket riot,
and am an Anarchist, and l say that

toned to keep the statement a secret, and
for that reason he did not tell the story uu-
I'll after the death of Owens.
THE MATTER INVESTIGATED.
PITTsBURG, November 4th.-The singular
story of the man Owens was made the sub
ject of an investigation this afternoon.
Dir. Piper, who worked with Owens. said
his testimony before the Coroner's INQUEST
was substantially as reported, and then
W ent on to tell that Owens had told him
that he (Owens) was at the Haymarket
meeting and had stood close to the man
who threw the bomb. The story was told
to Piper under pledge of secrecy, which
Piper kept until relieved of it by Owens
sudden death. An examination of the
effects of the deceased shows in his trunk
from his sister in Chicago, warning him to
keep away from the Socialists, as they had
been the cause of his trouble.
RIDIcULED AT CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, November 4th.-The story from
Pittsburg, with the alleged Anarchist SEN
satisn, is smiled at here. 1t is full of in
consistencies, and about the only basis
there can be for it is that the man Owens
was perhaps a member of one of the An
archist groups and left Chicago in the gen.
eral exodus of those gentry after the Hay
market affair.
WHAT sCHwAB SAYS.
Michael Schwab brother-in-law of
Schnaubelt, was seen in the Jail this even
ing and said that little reliance could be
placed in the story. Schnaubelt's only
partner here was machinist. He is not
an Anarchist, and is still in this city work
ing at his trade.
PIPER's STORY coRRoBoRATED.
PITTsBURG, November 4tb. - Reporters
who went to Homestead this evening ir-
terviewed many residents of that village,
and found two or three who claimed to
have knowledge of Owens connection with
the bomb-throwing. They neglected, how
ever, to explain why they kept this to
themselves until now.

THE POWER TO PUNISH General
james A. Garfield, in his speech on ooer-
cion, said: "No statute was ever enforced
without coercion. 1t is the basis of every
law in the uniyerse-human or divine. A
law is no law without coercion behind it.
You levy taxes, coercion secures their col
lection. 1t follows the shadow OF the
thief and brings him to justice 1t lays
its iron hand on the murderer, tries him,
and hangs him. 1t accompanies your di-
plomacy to foreign courts, and backs the
declaration of the nations rights by a
pledge of the nations strength. But when
the life of the nation is imperiled we are
told it has no coercive power against the
parrieides in its own bosom.n

A Search for Cold Water Develops

fCopyrigh, 1857, by tae California Associated Press
PORTLAND (Or.), November 4th.-A re-
markable phenomenon was reported at
Salem to-day. Several men were engaged
in digging a large well at the Insane
Asylum ground to obtain supply of cold
water, The well was sunk to depth of
over so feet. To-day there was great
rush of water into the well which proved
to be nearly boiling. hot. Over 25 feet of
water collected in the well, and up to this
evening the temperature had not changed.
As Salem is over thirty miles from any
range of mountains, the presence of hot
water is considered remarkable. 1t is
feared that the well will not be able to
furnish anything but hot water.
